Image Analysis of Events During Election.........

The events of recent public speeches of Rod Parsley, the "spiritual adviser" of Senator McCain, and Jeremiah Wright, the "spiritual adviser" of Senator Obama are forms of bigotry.

One is a symbol of bigotry, and the other a symbol of counter bigotry. Both are rationalized justifications. Whether bigotry is slowly but surely losing its grip on evolving human specie that remains to be an open question........

In the mean time the events of race cards are becoming frequent occurrences in current political environment. The end results of a long race card game through self analysis or with the help of professional analysis could bring an opportunity to transform and transcend a nation from racists under currents permeating in the United States of America, or the events could divide the nation should the nation fails to come to terms with its racist sickness. The hope to hope is that once these events are analysed individually as well as collectively the United States of America will transform and transcend from its bigotry, and the nation will be stronger and united . The realism, under the circumstances, suggest that as long as the race card is being played in the political arena by political leaders the end result is not going to be positive. The dynamics under which the race card was inserted in of itself has been so negative from the early primaries that to hope for a better outcome in the short term is going to be no more than a hope for now......

Regardless, the events of these speeches, and the reactions or lack of or muted reactions in some cases are all in themselves provide an opportunity to assess the archetypes images that these events are invoking among the inhabitants of the United States of America in particular, and the inhabitants of this planet at large, in general.

Time to ponder............
